Chapter 66 Clue Ask the piano boy to give the name Wan Yansong
In Zhufang Garden, under the plum blossom tree, Song Qinghuan said that he had long been crying here. The charcoal fire in the hand stove has burned out, and the tea and wine have been cold. The cultivator quietly took the charcoal fire and lit it again, and found a light cloak for her to put on her, and asked her if she wanted to rest in peace.
Song Qinghuan wiped away his tears and said: "Now that you have said this, how can you hang your appetite?" I was going to tell you about Brother Yu, but I started from the beginning, but I said that it was a long mistake. ”
Xiu Ling shook his head and said: "His Royal Highness King Yu must act now for a reason, so naturally he has to start from the beginning." It's just that these are secret things, and the princess shouldn't have told me. ”
Song Qinghuan held her hand and said: "Although I am the only princess in the dignified dome, I also want to have one or two sisters who can say something about themselves. ”
After a pause, he held back his tears and smiled lightly, "You and Brother Yu are old friends, but there are some things you want to ask but can't?" Anyway, the night is long, so I might as well talk to you about it. So he talked about the life of King Yu.
But it is said that King Yu's biological mother is Emperor Song Ning's beloved concubine Yaoji, who is a sentimental and frail and sickly lovely child, and it is precisely because of this that after giving birth to the prince with his life's blood, he died with a whimper. Emperor Ning was in mourning, so he regarded the little prince as a treasure since he was a child.
At that time, the current Emperor Xuan was still the king of Xuan, and after the concubine of the main room died of illness, Zhuge Erya was corrected. However, there are rumors that the woman in King Xuan's heart is not Zhuge Erya, but his brother's deceased concubine Yaoji.
Because at that time, it was obviously Yaoji who died, and the younger brother cried even more grief-stricken than his brother, who was a husband, like a mourner. In fact, the main family of the king had nothing to do, and he was not favored in the first place, and marrying her was just out of the need for political marriage.
Later, Zhuge Erya's desire to control power gradually expanded, and some careful people speculated with great fear that the death of Yao Ji and Concubine Se was planned behind her back. But at that time, the speech was not a common practice, and it was stifled as soon as it smoked.
However, Chen Baina, the personal guard and confidant of King Yu, paid attention to it and secretly investigated, but found that there was something strange about it. There are two clues.
First, the relevant people who were present at the scene at the time either died of illness or accident or left their homes after the incident, and in particular, the work of examining the corpses was as if the world had evaporated.
Second, in the only witness testimony, when the second concubine died, someone heard an unusually strange melody, but they couldn't really hear it, and they only recorded a few unfinished notes, and the second concubine was on the verge of giving birth at that time, and the other was sick and weak, and she couldn't play the piano at all.
So, when everyone said that Emperor Ning became an immortal, Song Liancheng decided that the death of his father was not accidental, because when he died, there was also a strange melody, so he ordered Chen Baina to investigate thoroughly.
Just when Chen Baina was looking around for news, Emperor Xuan, who inherited the throne, issued a holy decree: Song Liancheng, the king of Liyu, succeeded to the crown prince and lived in the East Palace according to the old system. At this will, Zhuge Erya, Song Chuyin and Song Qinghuan were taken aback.
At that time, the brother and sister were in Fengxiang Palace to congratulate their mother on her ascension to the throne. Because the emperor and the ministers and Qin Zun gave the queen a mountain of gifts, they were watching and playing one by one. Zhuge Erya drank with the parrot conch glass cup that Xia Zun worshipped, the orchid fingers were slightly upturned, the face was full of spring breeze, and the cheeks were more rosy, so unpleasant.
Who knew that the pear official came to report that the emperor had issued a decree, and without waiting for the queen to speak, he hurriedly bowed down and retired.
"Slipped away!" Song Qinghuan whispered in the imperial brother's ear, and glanced at the queen mother. For her at that time, it didn't make a difference whether the crown prince was Brother Yu or the royal brother. Just this glance, I was so frightened that I quickly shut up.
Zhuge Erya's face was pale, and she didn't speak, and with a slam slap, she had already summoned her Luoxia Baoqin "Daya", and said: "Have fun today, play a song." After speaking, the fingers began to speak, and suddenly plucked.
The sound of the piano was very strong and intense, and instead of being festive, it was full of a chilling murderous aura. For a time, the sound waves flooded, and after the song was written, all the treasures in the hall were shattered, and the strings were broken.
At this time, the queen quietly picked up the teacup again, took a sip and said, "If you are tired, you can go." ”
Song Qinghuan helped Song Chu, who was trembling and slumping, out of Fengxiang Palace. After about a hundred steps, Song Chuyin shook her hand, straightened her waist and said with a blue face: "You think she played the song for me just now?" That's for herself! ”
At this point, Song Qinghuan knew that the imperial brother, who had always shown weakness in front of the queen mother, had been forbearing, because of sympathy and family affection, she gradually stood on the side of the imperial brother, and the two became more and more intimate, until she saw the scene of killing her father in the painting and woke up.
Just when Song Chuyin and the queen were at odds, Chen Baina quietly entered the East Palace overnight, and brought a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy by his side to "wipe the piano". The child's original name was Zeng Qiao, who was originally a child who was responsible for wiping the piano in Tongtian Temple, and was deeply loved by Emperor Ning.
As a witness on the day of Emperor Ning's feathering, he hummed the strange melody he heard that day with his memory, and repeatedly bowed and said: "On the day of Emperor Ning's feathering, we received a holy oracle, saying that the twelve qin children such as wiping the qin, holding the qin, supporting the qin, and picking the qin have served meritorious, and now the first emperor ascended to the sky to follow the emperor of the qin, and specially moved us to the temple of the emperor of the qin on the mountain of sanqing outside the city to continue to worship, and moved the things left by the emperor ning together."
We waited to go to the Qindi Temple on the Sanqing Mountain according to the order, but who knew that there was already a group of people ambushed in it, and when they saw us, they would kill people and kill them. Fortunately, with the blessing of the first emperor, I used a piece of music that the first emperor gave me before his death to protect myself, so I escaped with the two of them.
Those killers chased after me, and died of serious injuries in the middle of the road, and I was fortunate to be rescued by a pianist, who asked me to hide in the jade workshop in Xieyang County in disguise as a man, and taught me some fireworks tunes, so that I can survive to this day. ”
As he spoke, he untied the piano bag he was carrying and offered the treasure qin that Emperor Ning had caressed before his death.
Song Liancheng caressed his father's relics and cried, and then returned the qin to the qin and said: "Since you have this qin, it can be seen that you are its destined person and the benefactor of your father, so it is better for this king to give this qin to you for your father, I hope you can do something in the future." ”
After wiping the qin and refusing, seeing that the prince was persistent, he had to accept it, and he was grateful and wiped his tears and said: "The villain will practice hard every day in the future, and I just hope to help His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"Now is not the time, but maybe it will be in the future." Song Liancheng sighed, "The mountain rain is coming!" ”
"That'...... Your Highness, can you give this piano one? ”
Song Liancheng pondered for a long time and said, "Why don't you call it 'Ten Thousand Pine Songs'?" Go back and repaint the instrument and polish the shape, so that you don't suffer. In the future, if it is inconvenient for you to be born, or if you and I have been separated for a long time, you can also change the name of this piano, and I will recognize you. The piano was frequently kowtowed.
Later, the three of them combined the melody he confessed with the melody of the second concubine Yaose's death, and made up a sentence, but that sentence was extremely weird, and they couldn't find the source for a while, so they could only give up.
Song Liancheng suddenly asked: "You said that it was the will of the Holy God to move to Sanqing Mountain, but it was the pear official who announced the decree?" ”
After thinking about it, he suddenly covered his mouth and said secretly: "No wonder, it's not a pear official, it's a faceless official, thin and enchanting, beautiful and charming, compared to me, by the way, the clothes are more noble and gorgeous than ordinary officials......"
Song Liancheng said in his heart: "It should be the Langguan Linlang in front of the queen." Then he ordered the secret guard to quietly send the wiping qin back to Xieyang County, and then discussed it with Chen Baina for a while, and Baina recommended himself to find the source of this melody.
Chen Baina searched for more than a year for this purpose, and finally found out the news. He found a footman in Xieyang County who often went back and forth to do business, and the merchant said, "This voice...... It's like a bird singing. ”
In this sentence, Chen Baina was reminded that he had visited the piano gate and the piano master everywhere this year, and asked for the piano score but never found anything, and it turned out that he was in the wrong direction. So he asked the merchant what kind of bird he was calling, and where was it? The merchant spoke of a remote valley where he only occasionally heard birds chirping as he passed by, the details of which were unknown.
Baina listened and hurried to look for it.
